Hood and filter

[sdgmusic]

I have a lens hood that screws onto my lens, when using a cir. pl. what order should they go?

Lens, Hood, Filter

OR

Lens, Filter, Hood

Lens, filter, hood.
That way you can rotate the polarizer by rotating the hood. Unfortunately, my lens hoods are the bayonet style, so I don't have that option...

depends on the type of hood. If it is the rubber hood you can buy from adorama or B&H, I do lens hood filter, because the hood can hold back and allow rotation of the filter.

Also, if you have a pedal hood (not the same length on all sides) then rotating the hood will give you some serious problems with vignetting and the hood being in the photos.
